    Good game controller for Apple TV. The joysticks aren’t super precise feeling, but for the simpler Apple TV games, it’s fine. Easy setup.

    I do not recommend this product. It stopped working within 2 weeks. Unfortunately Best Buy has a 14 day return policy unless you purchase the warranty. Waste of money and disappointed Best Buy would not let me return this item. I am going to purchase an Xbox but I will not give Best Buy my business. I will go elsewhere.

    I’m using this controller with my AppleTV. At 72, I’ve decided to learn to play video games, some at least. I have a subscription for Apple Arcade, and enjoy trying! The grandchildren also enjoy this controller when they are with me.

    Controller is great! The ordering not so much. I needed something for the holidays in a clutch move I ordered for same day delivery by 9PM. I did so, so that I could do other things. 8:450M I get a message that it can’t be delivered. Way to ghost me Best Buy. Pickup in store or have it mail delivered because this “Deliver Today” is a joke.

    Controller is not compatible with iOS devices even it states it on the box. When you download the companion add it says no controller detected and it will not connect to the app so you can’t use it.

    This was good while it lasted. But 6 months after buying it the joy sticks are now getting stuck, making it really hard to play games.
